Right. And http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#understanding-upload says "podling dist dir" and links to a definition of that. One or both of those places should probably say that you may not create it yourself and need instead to file a jira. That's for two reasons: mailer config and svnwcsub setup. I've just made a tweak to the former - can you mkdir /release/incubator/marmotta and confirm that your commits@ list receives a notification of that? I'm inclined to leave the latter as-is, though: one svnwcsub line per podling. Which means the need for a jira ticket remains. Can you patch the incubator docs, then? > - http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing.html > - http://www.apache.org/dev/publishing-maven-artifacts.html > > The first two documents both describe (among many other things) the SVN > distribution repository.

There's no clear place explaining "you need to talk to us" (that's more http://www.apache.org/dev/infra-contact#requesting-podling material), but I suppose we could add a paragraph about that to http://www.apache.org/dev/release#heads-up. Or just change the authz file so podlings _can't_ create their own dist dirs. > So to solve the situation, could you please setup the commit mails > correctly? I just realised that my colleague had already filed an issue Done. But leave the jira open please, svnwcsub still needs to be set up for your ^/release area. > with INFRA last week, it just was not answered: > > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-5994 > It's in the queue. Actually there are about 4 "create an svnpubsub dist dir" jiras in the queue, which is good for us (we can batch them - this particular task isn't scripted yet). > ;-) > > > Greetings, > > Sebastian > > > > > [email protected] wrote on Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 17:00:32 -0000: > > > Author: sschaffert > > > Date: Tue Mar 19 17:00:08 2013 > > > New Revision: 1582 > > > > > > Log: > > > Apache Marmotta 3.0.0-incubating release candidate > > > > > > Added: > > > dev/incubator/marmotta/3.0.0-incubating/ > > > dev/incubator/marmotta/3.0.0-incubating/KEYS > > > > > dev/incubator/marmotta/3.0.0-incubating/apache-marmotta-3.0.0-incubating-installer.tar.gz > > (with props) > >
